Licenciatura en Composición de Canciones

There are few things more exciting than writing your own music and bringing it to life. JMC’s Songwriting course is renowned for its hands-on practicality, a strong focus on individual musicianship, and for being a launchpad into the entertainment industry for all up-and-coming writers and composers.

Covering the essential tools for writing music to appeal to publishers, record labels, and producers across genres and media channels, this course will help you create your own music and lyrics, develop your instrumental skills, produce demos, and perform your own songs.

The Bachelor's degree is designed to help you create strong, focused songs that perfectly blend your lyrical ideas with powerful melodies. It will help you understand the principles of film and TV music, the key concepts in top-lining, and writing for ensembles using acoustic and electronic instrumentation.

Master songwriting in the digital domain, refine your recording skills, explore music distribution and marketing strategies, and learn the importance of co-writing and collaboration. And while talent will get you far, to be successful, it is vital to be tech savvy and skilled with industry-standard software – Avid Pro Tools for recording; digital score-writing tech like Sibelius – that will allow you to produce your own demo recordings.

The Bachelor's degree also explores channels of music distribution, monetization, and copyright, and guarantees you will graduate with a rich portfolio of your own songs as a showcase of your talent.

In only 2 years you can graduate with a Bachelor's degree thanks to our accelerated full-time course. Part-time study is also available to domestic students. International students may choose to complete the course in 3 years rather than the accelerated 2-year option.
